Common Ground Exhibition Tour

PAY WHAT YOU WISH

Tour the ongoing exhibition Common Ground: The Heart of Community with JANM’s knowledgeable docents.

In honor of the 30th anniversary of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, the landmark legislation that brought incarceration camp survivors an apology from the US government and monetary reparations, the last section of Common Ground is being reimagined to further emphasize the historic achievements of the redress movement. Artifacts from the JANM Collection will be added and for a limited time, pages of the original Civil Liberties Act document, including the page bearing President Ronald Reagan’s signature, will be displayed. These pages are on loan from the National Archives in Washington DC. The revised gallery will go on view August 4, with the original pages from the Act on display through September 23, 2018.

Admission to this tour and the museum are both pay-what-you-wish on this day.
